Hi Andres,

Sorry I don’t have any connections in AIX. I couldn’t find info related to this. Sorry I couldn’t help.

I realize the question below is likely not your department, but perhaps you
could refer us to the right people?

Does IBM provide any AIX instances to open source projects? We have access to
some via the gcc compile farm, but they're a bit outdated, often very
overloaded, and seem to have some other issues (system perl segfaulting etc).
